Hi para view specialists,

I always get this pattern when saving screenshots by surface LIC.  
I actually found a solution here in this post. [https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/issues/19302#note\_622535](https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/issues/19302#note_622535)  
I could not get the code running.  
However, I found a workaround, so in tools I changed to Lock View size custom and used a custom resolution. However, I did not succeed, I do not get rid of these artifacts. Any ideas?  
Thank you so much

… I got somewhat of a workaround. One needs to click on View and set the Preview to 4k and then export a screenshot. The resolution is way better and there are no strange patterns. I hope this helps
